Question 2 of 5
Which of the following statements about mealtime is true?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A because social interaction plays a crucial role in mealtime, enhancing residents' overall dining experience and well-being. Engaging in conversations and fostering connections during meals can promote a sense of community, reduce isolation, and improve residents' emotional and mental health. Choice B is incorrect because it promotes dependence and undermines residents' independence and dignity. Nursing assistants should support residents in mealtime activities while encouraging their autonomy. Choice C is incorrect as it prioritizes personal conversations over residents' needs and fails to recognize the importance of providing individualized care during mealtimes. Choice D is incorrect because it may negatively impact residents' dining experience by potentially discouraging them from eating. Instead, nursing assistants should offer support and alternatives if meals are unappetizing while respecting residents' choices.
Question 3 of 5
Hidden or ______ blood is found inside stool with a microscope or a special chemical test.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: Occult. Occult blood refers to hidden blood that is not visible to the naked eye and can only be detected through microscopic or chemical testing. This term is commonly used in medical contexts to describe blood in stool that may indicate gastrointestinal issues or bleeding. Choice B, Hemoccult, is a specific brand name for a fecal occult blood test, so it is not a general term for hidden blood in stool. Choice C, Toxic, and choice D, Pathogenic, are unrelated to the presence of hidden blood in stool and do not describe this specific medical condition.
Question 4 of 5
Sexually-transmitted infections are caused by sexual contact with an infected person. Sexual contact includes which of the following?
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: The correct answer is D because contact of the mouth with the genitals can directly transmit sexually transmitted infections (STIs) through mucous membranes. Mouth-to-mouth kissing (A) and holding hands (C) do not involve direct contact with genitalia, making transmission of STIs unlikely. Contact of hands with the breasts (B) also does not typically transmit STIs as they are not mucous membranes. Therefore, D is the correct choice for STI transmission via sexual contact.
Question 5 of 5
About 55% of blood is made up of _______.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Plasma. Plasma constitutes about 55% of blood volume and is a fluid component that carries various substances such as nutrients, hormones, and waste products. Erythrocytes (A) are red blood cells and make up about 40-45% of blood volume. Leukocytes (B) are white blood cells and only account for a small percentage of blood volume. Platelets (D) are cell fragments involved in blood clotting and make up a very small percentage of blood volume. Plasma is the correct answer because it is the largest component of blood by volume and carries out essential functions in the body.
